The princess is coquettish and coquettish, conquering the emperor's master

If it is said that the state of Chu is in chaos, the internal affairs of Jin are even more chaotic than that of Chu.

If this is a marriage, I am afraid that the life of Princess Xincheng will be lost in it.

Meng Qing thought for a while, and said: "Dare to ask the second prince, the lord of the Jin Dynasty already has a queen, did my princess Xincheng, the mayor of Dachu, marry as a concubine?"

She put the word concubine very high, Chu State has the pride of Chu State, there is no reason for a princess of a country to be a concubine.

Xiao Chuji smiled, "No! My father is old and has no luck to enjoy it. The purpose of this marriage marriage is only to match the marriage between my eldest brother Xiao Zhuochi and the new city princess of your country."

Xiao Zhuochi?
Xiao Yan's eyes darkened.

"Xiao Zhuochi? But the eldest son of the emperor who came and went without a trace from the Jin Kingdom?"

"Hey, I heard that this person often wears a mask and looks ugly. Princess Xincheng will be wronged to marry him!"

Listening to the voices of discussion in the hall, Meng Fei became more worried, and even turned her begging eyes on Meng Qing.

But Meng Qing turned a blind eye.

She first evaded and said: "This matter is of great importance. I can't give the second prince an answer for the time being. How about I inform you after discussing with the officials?"

"Alright."

Xiao Chuji took a sip of the sweet-scented osmanthus-flavored liquor, but looked at Xiao Yan who was sitting opposite him, and smiled.

"Surely this is the famous Emperor Xiao, right? I've been looking forward to it for a long time!"

Xiao Yan looked at him coldly, and the blood in his eyes revealed a strange aura.

Xiao Chuji saw that he ignored him, so he hooked his lips and chatted with other courtiers.

After Meng Qing drank some spirits, she felt a little dizzy and left the table first, sitting on the Luanjia and fell asleep dizzily.

And the envoys of the Jin Kingdom were entertained and arranged by the officials of Honglu Temple, and it was good for her to ask occasionally.

This Xiao Chuji came down the whole way, revealing a weirdness.

When he said that he wanted to marry Princess Xincheng for his eldest brother Xiao Zhuochi, the corners of his mouth were extremely disdainful, as if to him, it didn't matter whether the matter was successful or not.

Perhaps they are just using this cover to inquire about Da Chu's reality, it is unknown.

When Luanjia stopped at Xinuang Pavilion, Meng Fei also chased after him.

"emperor!"

Meng Qing stopped and looked back, "What are you doing here?"

Dragging a complicated palace attire, Meng Fei trotted up to her and said, "Your Majesty, if I don't want to make a wedding, you must not promise him!"

The moonlight is hazy, and the white clouds are fragile and floating.

Meng Qing was dizzy, and said: "Don't worry, I will consider it carefully, and naturally I won't ask you to marry to the Jin Kingdom for no reason."

"What do you mean without reason? Do you mean that you are very likely to agree? Meng Qing! Didn't you listen to what the courtiers said? They said that Xiao Zhuochi was a disfigured monster. How could I marry the dignified princess of Chu State? For such an ugly alien?"

Lingyu said sharply: "Princess Xincheng, please be careful with your words."

Meng Fei glanced at her, not paying attention to her words at all.

Meng Qing sighed, and could only comfort her, "Meng Fei, you are my only sister now, and I naturally don't want you to marry to the Jin Kingdom. Don't worry, I will reject this marriage for you."

"Are you serious about what you said?"

Meng Fei was dubious.

"Really, you go back to the Red Sandalwood Hall and wait quietly. As long as I don't agree, they will naturally pack their bags and go back to Jin."

"Okay then, I'll go back to the palace first."

"Ah."

Meng Fei looked back three times at every step, got into the princess sedan chair and drove back to the Red Sandalwood Hall.

With Lingyu's support, Meng Qing walked up the steps slowly.

Ling Yu said: "Your Majesty, it's quite strange that the Jin Kingdom came here just for the sake of marriage."

Meng Qing paid attention to her feet and frowned.

"That's right, Xiao Chuji has been very strange since he entered the palace, as if this marriage is not necessary, and it's just a casual mention, it doesn't matter whether we agree or not."

"Indeed, it stands to reason that the Second Prince doesn't really want Princess Xincheng to marry Xiao Zhuochi."

Meng Qing supported her forehead, "Of course he doesn't want to. The Queen of Jin has only two sons, one is the eldest son Xiao Zhuochi, and the other is him. They are the most likely to inherit the throne. And I heard that the Jin Kingdom The empress favors the youngest son, she doesn't care about the eldest son, she is very alienated, now the emperor of the state of Jin wants to marry the daughter of the royal family of the state of Chu for the eldest son, then it means that Xiao Zhuochi has the support of our state of Chu, for Xiao Zhuochi It is extremely beneficial to ascend to the position of prince. It is reasonable for Xiao Chuji not to want Xincheng to marry him, after all, who would not want to be emperor?"

"What the emperor said is, I don't know what kind of wishful thinking they are planning. But it's okay, we have adults here, so we don't have to worry about Jin's conspiracy!"

Meng Qing smiled, but said nothing.

Does she care about how the wishful thinking goes?What she cared about was whether Xiao Yan would have any connection with the Jin royal family!
If Xiao Yan had anything to do with the royal family of the Jin Kingdom...Meng Qing couldn't even imagine what would happen next.As long as there is one Xiao Yan, there will be countless Xiao Yan, and now she can only beg that Xiao Yan is a real Chu countryman.

After the dinner party, Xiao Yan left the palace.

……

Xiao House.

The night is as cool as washing, with light and haze.

A car with green tents and long eaves was parked in front of Xiao's mansion, and Li Guanshi rushed forward to greet him.

When Xiao Yan got off the car, Li Guanshi whispered in his ear.

Seeing his deep eyes and hidden light, he raised his feet and walked into the mansion.

Zhong Qing is holding this everlasting lamp ahead, the light cuts through the night and illuminates the bluestone path.

They didn't stop until they came to a gazebo.

The eaves of the gazebo are extremely beautiful under the moonlight, and there are a few dim lights hanging on the corners of the eaves. A man in snow clothes is lying on the side of the pavilion. There is a red mole between his eyebrows and an earring, making him very handsome.

"came back……"

Xiao Yan held the red sandalwood Buddha beads tightly and asked Zhong Que and others to go down.

He stepped into the gazebo, and cast his eyes on the cups of wine on the short table, which reflected the bright crescent moon.

"What are you here for?"

Pei Jiuzhi shook the wine in his glass, tilted his head and said, "Why, I'm not allowed to come. Huh? Xiao Zhuochi?"

Xiao Yan said with a sullen face, "That's not what I meant. It didn't say in the letter that you would come too."

He stood up with a smile and drank the spirits in one gulp.

"Although it was not mentioned in the letter, I will still come. My aunt asked me to come here to bring Xie Yunzhi back, and also let me warn you, don't have any undue relationship with the people of Chu State, after all... The Jin royal family is your home."

Xiao Yan squeezed the Buddhist beads tightly, his expression still stern, "Xie Yunzhi, I'm not here."

Pei Jiuzhi's expression changed, "Isn't it with you? Then where did he go?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen him for half a year."

"Damn it! Master Hou and the eldest princess are dying of anxiety! My aunt has issued a death order this time. If I can't bring Xie Yunzhi back, I have to stay in Chu!"

He looked at his cousin, whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years. When they were young, they often read and played together. Xiao Zhuochi was a little shorter than him, and his beauty was not half inherited from his aunt.
